Hormonal Replacement for Both Men and Women

Are you feeling moody, depressed, irritable, or have brain fog? Are you losing hair or libido or feeling hot or aged? Are you finding it difficult to lose weight or perhaps having acne? These are some of the signs of having a hormonal imbalance. Production of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, DHEA, melatonin, human growth hormone, and other hormones tapers off after we reach our 20s and 30s and contribute to the signs and symptoms of aging. Blood, saliva and urine testing for all hormones including the thyroid hormone, optimizing with bio-identical hormones and going beyond just "normal" are a cornerstone therapy at our center.

Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Infections, Lyme Disease

Chonic Fatigue and Imune Dysfunction Syndromes (abbreviated CFIDS or CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FMS) represent a group of symptoms associated with severe fatigue, insomnia, "brain fog," and, in those with fibromyalgia, widespread pain. Lyme disease symptoms often overlap with those of co-infections or other diseases, such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and lupus. Most people can improve and often recover by using our individualized protocols that address sleep, hormonal support, infections, nutrition, and exercise. Oxidative therapies including hyperbaric, ozone and ultraviolet blood irradiation are very effective. Many patients have recovered using our individualized oral and I.V. nutrition, antibiotics, detoxification and rebuilding the immune system program.

Healthy Aging & Wellness

Our true wellness center now offers acupuncture, colonics, fitness training, massage, yoga, mediation, stress reduction, emotional healing, nutrition and cooking classes. We offer several weight loss programs including using HCG. We address mood and sleep disorders, headaches, anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD through neurotransmitter testing and balancing. Comprehensive and extensive blood and specialized testing for biomarkers of heart disease, stroke, diabetes and cholesterol can be ordered and treated naturally using nutrients and prescriptions when necessary.

A unique but effective treatment for pain is with the use of ozone called prolozone. It uses the power of oxygen to cause damaged tissues, joints, ligaments, and tendons to regenerate. This usually causes a complete healing, and can be a permanent end to pain.

Oral and IV Nutrition
Cancer Recovery

We extensively use oral nutritional and herbal support to nourish and energize the body. For our cancer patients we prefer to use intravenous nutrition which involves administering vitamins, minerals, amino acids, or other nutrients directly into the bloodstream (intravenously). Our extensive protocols, some using Vitamin C, Myers cocktail, or Glutathione, help strengthen immune function and are used for chronic fatigue, cancer recovery, migraines, maculardegeneration, allergies and more. We identify food allergies and sensitivity and help with special diets such as gluten free, dairy free, vegan or vegetarian. We frequently test for vitamin, antioxidant and mineral deficiencies, gut flora, Candida and stomach acid.

Chelation Therapy Detoxification Programs

Chelation is a safe, effective and relatively inexpensive treatment to restore blood flow in patients with atherosclerosis without surgery and to eliminate toxins and heavy metals from your system. It involves the intravenous infusion of a prescription medicine called Ethylene Diamine Tetra-Acetic Acid (EDTA), plus vitamins and minerals at therapeutic dosages. We test for heavy metals, environmental toxins, plastics, PCBs, pesticides and offer I.V. and oral chelation, liver support with oral and I.V. nurtition along with the use of the infra-red sauna, lymphatic drainage. We offer 3, 10, and 28 day detoxification programs that can be tailored to your needs.
